[Footnote 5: Translating Boissevain's conjecture, [Greek: dela chahi pempton isa], in place of a corruption in the text.]

[Footnote 7: Boissevain thinks that the passage indicated was probably in

Forty-nine, Chapter 34. There, too, the correspondence is not complete.]
[Footnote 8: The modern Aosta.]
[Footnote 9: Possibly this prænomen is an error for Publius.]
[Footnote 10: Chapter 18 of this Book.]
[Footnote 11: Another writer reports his name as Lucius Lamia.]
[Footnote 12: The "prosperous" or fertile part of Arabia, as opposed to Arabia Deserta or Petræa.]
